What You're Up Against
Level 218 paints Penguin with 142 tiles across 4 colors, split into 6 cubes in the tray. You have 5 waiting slots and two nest holes.
- Blue: 82 tiles → cubes of 43, 39
- Magenta: 48 tiles → cubes of 25, 23
- Teal: 8 tiles → cubes of 8
- Brown: 4 tiles → cubes of 4
⚠️ 1 hidden “?” cube in the tray.
Spoiler: what they hide
Teal 8
Step-by-Step Solution
This loading order was computed from the web level layout with a reachability-first strategy: always feed the ants colors they can actually reach, and never let all 5 slots fill with blocked colors. Tap hidden “?” cubes only when you have slot room to absorb a surprise color.
Load the cubes in this order, letting the ants work between picks. Unless noted, a cube's tiles are fully reachable when you send it.
- Send the Teal 8 cube.
- Send the Blue 39 cube. Only ~38 of its 39 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Blue 43 cube. Only ~29 of its 43 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Brown 4 cube.
- Send the Magenta 23 cube. Only ~20 of its 23 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
- Send the Magenta 25 cube. Only ~15 of its 25 tiles are open at this point — park it in a slot and let the surrounding colors clear the rest of the way.
Finish without boosters for 3 stars and bonus coins. If the board jams anyway, a Shuffle or Vacuum booster is the cheapest way out.
